Just google for "android malware" and "chrome exploits". They used to say Macs could never get a virus. Perhaps in the strictest sense of the word virus it's true, but malware happens now because the attack surface is greater now. I expect no less of chrome powered chromebooks. Chromebook or not, net safety should always be observed. That all said, IMHO, re: security, anything is better than Windows. +1 on the privacy concerns. Valid questions of anything related to Google, et al. The trend is to swap privacy for convenience. Read "Data and Goliath" for deeper insight. BTW, I have been looking at Chromebooks as well, esp. the ones that can be rooted. Looking for cheap "terminals" for around the home. |
